XBOX - PC Game Pass Three4One Campaign

Three4One - 3 Months For A Dollar Music Video and Mocumentary [FULL PRODUCTION]

I had the pleasure of working with the creative minds over at Trailer Park Group and Six Twenty Six to produce this one. We brought together 3 of the most dynamic gamer influencers and turned them into a pop group super mega global sensation “Three4One!” The self aware cringe comedy is turned up to 11 in our Mocumentary behind the scenes spot. After the release of the longform, the fans were begging for the full music video. We had a lot of fun creating this one and Im really stoked to see all the positive response from the fans.

LEXUS - LX 600 Campaign

The 2022 Lexus LX 600: Empower Your Presence | Lexus - [FULL PRODUCTION]

I am very proud of the work that the team at Walton Isaacson and I were able to accomplish. This was my first car campaign, and what a beautiful vehicle it was to shoot. We partnered with a lot of great vendors on this one including the fantastic French Director James Coton with support from Bunker Productions. With my laid back production style, and support from a great team, we were able to win over a typically difficult client to make the project feel smooth and fun.

NETFLIX - Netflix is a joke Festival

NETFLIX IS A JOKE FESTIVAL - VENUE EXPERIENTIAL CONTENT - [FULL PRODUCTION]

This project was with Wild Card Creative, and was a great break from the traditional advertising work to focus on some hilarious, irreverent and self deprecating creative. This was a beast of a project with 35 unique deliverables in just over 2 weeks to be seen live for the sold out Netflix Is A Joke Festival. While the task was big, it was super rewarding to see it all come together to play live in some of LA’s largest and most iconic venues like the Hollywood Bowl, Dodger Stadium, The Greek Theatre, and the Wiltern to name a few. The content ranged from live action comedy, to 3D and 2D animations with spots that acted as satyrical takes on “bad commercials” like a Personal Injury Attorney, Now Thats What I Call Music, Used Car Salesman, and Monster Truck Rally, as well as fun interactive games that had our live audiences cracking up and yelling at the screens. Since the content was in venue only and featured a lot of unreleased content, it cant be found on web. Click HERE to request private link access.

SNEAKER FILMS - [FULL PRODUCTION]

This suite of 7 social films were a blast to create. The 7 deliverables were built for organic posting on EBAYS sneaker social platforms, but they performed so well they put a lot of media $$ behind the spots that timed out for :15 buys. With only 2 shoot days were able to capture a lot of great content and couldn’t speak more highly of the team at Tuff Contender and Director Ariel Fischer. The post process went smoothly, but with this many deliverables on the same schedule it was a very busy work stream and complicated post pipeline to manage. In the end we had a very happy client and a creative team with something they were proud to put in their book.

DADS & GRADS - [POST PRODUCTION]

This idea had a really quick turnaround that required a post focused approach. I teamed with Drive studios to bring a sleek animation and graphic treatment to bring some otherwise boring stock footage to life.

ebay ESCROW

HOW TO VIDEOS - [FULL PRODUCTION]

This was a design focused execution so we needed something clean and stylish to get a clear point across and show some beautiful product.

bumble bee tuna - stop motion

Q3 STOP MOTION SOCIAL - [FULL PRODUCTION]

These fun quirky videos were done with the great partners at Ancient Order of the Hidden Skull. They are a small animation shop that has worked on some big projects, and they made the process as fun and appetizing as these videos. I was brought onto the account with some very nervous creatives and account team members, but with some fresh perspective I was able to win over a notoriously difficult client and pull this together with ease.

BUDGET BLINDS - NEW Product launch

SHADE CHANGE - [FULL PRODUCTION]

This campaign featured multiple cut downs and social // digital deliverables so the 1 day shoot was a massive undertaking. I was able to stretch a tight budget by packaging the whole project up with a great vendor and learned a lot of lessons along the way.

stitch fix - launch campaign

FOR WHO YOU ARE - [FULL PRODUCTION] - Click HERE to request private link access.

This was one of the most challenging projects I have every worked on, but in the end the client was thrilled with the work and I was grateful for the praise that came once it was all said and done. This was a very high budget with a very tight timeline as we were trying to make a strong statement for an emerging tech brand by kicking off this campaign during the oscars. It was a wild ride but I think I learned more from this project than I have in all my years as a producer.

BIOFREEZE - LIMITLESS CAMPAIGN

LIMITLESS - [FULL PRODUCTION]

This series of spots highest 3 super talented influencer athletes, using the product to excel at the sports they dominate. We worked with JOJX and their amazing young director, ESTEBAN, to create these spots. They are all tied together using a driving rhythmic track called SWEAT that I discovered in doing a deep music search that spanned 3 months. These spots were aired in a national broadcast campaign in 2019.

qdoba - Acronyms

ACRONYMS - [FULL PRODUCTION]

What does Qdoba stand for? No one really knows, so we wanted to play with that by turning the word into an acronym. This led to 4 quick hitting comedic spots that still highlight some delicious food photography. The team at Tuff Contender was a great fit for this project and found fun creative ways to get this done on a low budget 2 day shoot.

QDOba - Fresh It

FRESH IT (:30) - [Post Production]

This was an opportunity to create a fun unique piece of content using all food footage that we had previously shot for this client. This kept the budget really low as we mainly focused on post production. The final film was very well received by a client who loved it so much, they wanted to put more media dollars behind it to boost from social only to a regional TV buy.

INVITAE - Jenna Documentary

BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH - Click HERE to request private link access.

This film was a testimonial from one successful case of early breast cancer detection due to DNA testing. It was broken down into several short form pieces to be used on social media during breast cancer awareness month in 2019.

WALMART - Pioneer woman

ONE ON ONE with THE PIONEER WOMAN - Click HERE to request private link access.

I was fortunate to be welcomed onto the Drummond Ranch out in Oklahoma to shoot with Ree for a few days. She had just released a new line of products through Walmart so we created a how to series to show some of her products in action.

SPINDRIFT - SOCIAL FILMS

IF YOU DID IT YOURSELF - Click HERE to request private link access

A fun follow up to the Kristen Bell Campaign. We worked with Art Class to produce these quick spots and found some great non union talent to do the comedic heavy lifting without any dialogue.

Spindrift - Explainer Videos w/Kristen Bell

Yup, Thats It (:60) - Click HERE to request private link access.

This was my first project at Mistress Agency and an introduction to an amazing new brand Spindrift. For their launch campaign they wanted to connect with a powerful spokesperson to spread the message of their simple and delicious formula. Just sparkling water and real squeezed fruit. Yup, thats it. Kristen Bell was the perfect fit for this brand and was an absolute pleasure to work with. The response from her fan base has already pushed Spindrift from unknown to the premium choice for flavored soda water. The series of :15s are no longer available online, but I can provide a pw protected link upon request.

MUSE - Thought Contagion [Official Music Video]

MUSE - Thought Contagion [Post Production]

I am so grateful for the experience I gained assisting with this project. My good friends at OSHIN Studio were kind enough to bring me on as a Post Producer and I was able to learn so much about their process. We created all the video game designs and animations, the eye scanner as well as the lightning vfx. Also created the paper blowing in the wind from scratch in Cinema 4d. Project came out great and has amassed over 6mm views in a month.

CPK - Real Ingredient Promise

CPK - Real Ingredient promise

On this project we had some hurdles with the budget and schedule, however, we were able to use a "documentary" style approach to find some savings with a quick one day shoot. We were able to leverage the client to provide talent and an approved location, and utilized high quality stock footage to help tell the story outside the kitchen. I had to call in some vendor favors to get this one in the right budget range, but the client was thrilled with how this turned out.

CPK - Transporters - Wave 1 & 2

Jamaican Jerk (:10) - Limited Edition

This is a new digital campaign for CPK home baked frozen pizza. They will be rolling out this new theme for all styles of pizzas but plan to kick it off with their flagship Sicilian style, and the brand new Organic 5 Cheese and Tomato. We then followed up with a second wave of videos featuring the Classic BBQ Chicken, Hawaiian, and Limited Edition Jamaican Jerk. The idea is that the ingredients are so authentic that one bite will transport you to the ingredients place of origin. These were directed by Big Block Pictures, Paul Trillo who was chosen based on his fun transition approach.  

Digiorno - Rise to the occasion

RTTO - A DiGiorno Pizza Anthem

This was a crazy/fun one, and it was my first big budget project that I was allowed to produce solo from start to finish. The music video received over 1m views in the first day. I worked with a great team to create the track, hire a diverse group of Athletes, Musicians, and Influencers and produce a full length music video about how a Digiorno Pizza can elevate any occasion. There were 12 separate deliverables that were created from this content but due to talent contracts some of the vids have come down. Please email me for a private link to the full videos.

Netflix - stranger things premiere

Stranger Things Cast Gets Scared

This was a fun experiential event that was created by the Doner Agency to play with the cast of the new show "Stranger Things". We backed up the event with a video production capturing all the scares and laughs from the cast as well as some of the invited guests. This was a great tool to get more traction for the show as it launched as well as give fans some authentic content to enjoy while they wait for season 2. 

SANTA MARGHERITA

CHARACTER (:30)

FOR WHO YOU ARE (:60)

I was blessed with an incredible opportunity for my first start to finish broadcast project. The parallel stories of a girl named Tristan growing into a great artist, and the grapes growing from a sprout to being bottled and served to our hero. This amazing client wanted this film to be authentically shot at their vineyard in Tuscany, which meant we were on location in Italy for 2 weeks. After studying closely during the preproduction and time on set, I was able to handle the post production process on my own and deliver an approved cut ahead of schedule and under budget. We worked with Director Jacob Rosenberg at Bandito Brothers to bring this one together. 

RYDER

REBIRTH - [Post Production]

I came into this project after it was already shot, but assisted with the post. We worked with Method Studios and CO3 to do the color, clean up, and add some extra explosions and shrapnel with vfx. Lime did the sound design, vo and mix.
